Great Power Game Debrief

My empire was Russia which was a relativley significant country in the exstent of the game but was not one of the main two in the beginning. Great Britian and the Usa which where the main two which had the greatest advantage at the beginning of the game because there buying power was larger. My empire was a relativley important empire but compared to some of them I was insignificant. At the beginning of the game it was more important to buy industries so your economy and buying power could grow but later on when other countries started invading it was important to have a solid army and navy. I did well becoming a more important player in the game next time I would be less cocky because the more cocky you were the more you became a threat to the larger countries. My allicances were helpful as they allowed me to gain industries from invading other countries. I knew the whole time that my allicances where going to be broken so I was not surprised when it turned agaisnt me. I could trust them but only to a certain extent in the game. I learnt in the game that you should keep your friends close but your enemies closer as well as it is just as important to invest in industry as armies as with out one or the other the country can not grow and lastly I learnt that allies is only a mere word sometimes.
